FOUNDER/EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Morgan Jones

Morgan Jones, a registered architect, knows first-hand about the importance of supportive role models and access to opportunities when it comes to being successful in STEM. That's ultimately what led her to found the STEAM Engine. She credits her pursuit of a challenging profession to the supportive voices of her parents, teachers, and other adult volunteers as well as the numerous opportunities she had to explore her interests, including 7th grade Math camp, 9th grade Forensics camp, and 11th grade Architecture camp, to name a few. Her love of Oklahoma runs deeps. She has lived in 6 different Oklahoma towns including Norman, Ardmore, Edmond, Stillwater, Oklahoma City, and Tulsa, and has spent extended amounts of time in Granite/Altus, Marlow, Wynnewood, and Tahlequah. She holds a Bachelor of Architecture from Oklahoma State University and a Master of Business Administration from Oklahoma Christian University. When not running programs, meeting people in the community, or working on the next strategic idea, she likes to spend time with her husband Marcus, sons Miller and Mason, and extended family at the family farm or the lake.
